Everyone knows that director Nelson Dilipkumar has a wry sense of humour and a penchant for writing dark comedies. Now, he has turned producer for Bloody Beggar, a movie in this genre written and directed by debutant Sivabalan Muthukumar. ( Also read: GOAT review: Fans call it Vijay's best movie after Master ) What is Bloody Beggar about? Bloody Beggar, as the title suggests, is about a beggar ( Kavin ) whose name we don’t get to know until the end.
But then you learn that this strange fun-seeking beggar is not your typical beggar either. He lives with a young boy called Jack (Rohit Dennis), and while he employs all sorts of tricks to make a quick buck, Jack sells stationery at the traffic signals (akin to what we see in real life). The beggar won’t give Jack ₹ 10 to watch a movie but will order pizza from a food delivery app, and you’re left wondering what is behind this façade he is projecting.
A disappointed Jack wills God to teach the beggar a lesson, and what a lesson it turns out to be! One day the beggar is told of an ‘annadhanam’ (free meal) being offered at dead movie star Chandrabose’s (Radha Ravi) house. He lands up there for the meal and then realises he’s trapped inside the house. Somehow, he gets embroiled in the property dispute between the various heirs of Chandrabose.
As he is trapped in the house, the beggar learns the scheming, manipulative plans of the dead actor’s greedy children, which sets off a series of hilarious situations. How it.
